Abstract

Retrieval of atmospheric profiles of temperature and chemical components is generally accomplished by inverting the radiance function. Since the problem is non linear with respect to all variables, then a suitable linearization is resorted in order to solve the inverse problem. In this paper we introduce a new quasi-analytical method for estimating the coefficients of the linear problem that relies on a radiative transfer equation code for computing optical depths.
